I am seeking your vote for another term.  Here is what you'll get from me:

*  A supporter of school improvement who feels all children are capable of academic success, and who accepts the challenge of "no child left behind."

*  A proven leader and critical thinker who in the past four years has participated in a complete adminstrative makeover of the district, setting the stage for a focus on student achiement throughout the district.

*  An adept and decisive school board member who is able to make difficult decisions based on logic and facts, and who has the courage to withstand criticism for those tough decisions that will ultimately benefit students. 

* A CPA in Sequim for 17 years with a practical approach to school district finances, and a good understanding of community levy expectations.
 
Four years ago, this is what I said I believed:

"Each child deserves to have the best possible academic program consistent with each student's abilities and desire to learn." 

Four years ago, this is the type of school board I said I wanted:
"A school board that is relevant;
A board that places the classroom academic needs of students above all else; and

A board that knows its parents, students and schools well enough to make practical and informed decisions."

These are as true today as when I was first elected, and my record shows I have held true to my beliefs and promises
As a member of your school board, I will consistently advocate for students and place their needs first.
